@skgary, yes, within 16.10 package versions are different.

You have:

(1) Either `sudo apt-get install nvidia-304=304.134-0ubuntu0.16.10.1`
(or just `sudo apt-get install nvidia-304` as it's currently newest
version available to you) to install the newest version (134).

(2) Or try manually installing version `131-0ubuntu3` dedicated for
16.04 (not your 16.10) using `dpkg`. Not sure if it's good idea: (a)
whether it'll install at all (missing dependencies?); (b) whether it'll
work ok. Old (131) version packages may be located in your
`/var/cache/apt/archives` directory (they may remain there since were
used before upgrade); if no, they can be downloaded here:
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/restricted/n/nvidia-graphics-
drivers-304/. Again, I'm not sure, it's good idea to try installing
16.04-dedicated packages into 16.10.
